I've got a HPi, High-pressure Petrol Injection. Doesn't seem to give enough info for my liking.

Mitsubishi called these things GDi didn't they, Gasoline Direct Injection, but no mension of high pressure.

Hmmmmm

I'll let you add stuff aswell like this:

''Prelude 4WS ABS'' you know like ALL the badges fixed to the back of the car.

Here's my lame attempt...........
